The caretaker of a farm in São Gabriel do Oeste, in the interior of the Mato Grosso do Sul, was arrested after murdering a call girl and trying to kill her friend last Sunday (23).
According to information from the Civil Police, Eurípedes Ferreira de Andrade, 61, had hired Jennifer Gimenes Morgenrotti, 22, and Franciele Franco da Silva, 27, for a program worth 1,000 reais.
After an argument, the women tried to flee the scene. During the escape attempt, Franciele got into a physical struggle with Andrade, who was armed with a .22-caliber shotgun.
He shot both of them during the confrontation – Jennifer was hit in the back of the head and died instantly, while Franciele was hit in the face and played dead to escape.
